Thanks. I think the problem is that the rpm version you have is a 
non-unicode build of wxWidgets, whereas I've built it against a unicode 
version. See that the libs it's looking for have a u in the name, eg 
libwx_gtk2u_aui, whereas the ones on your system don't.

I would suggest having a look in your repository to see if a "unicode" 
build of wxWidgets 2.8 is available, and installing that. wxRuby hasn't 
ever supported ascii-only builds of wxWidgets, and probably won't. 
wxWidgets 3.0 will make this easier by having a single utf8 build only.

cheers
